Purchase order PDF to Excel

How it works

1. The converter reads the text and its position on each page.
2. Text on the same line becomes a row, and wide gaps become new columns.
3. Numbers like $1,250.00 become real numbers you can add up.
4. Each page gets its own tab, plus an All pages tab.

Good to know

1. Works with PDFs that contain real text. Scanned pages are pictures and need OCR first.
2. Complex layouts may need a quick clean-up in Excel.
3. Nothing is stored. Close the tab and it is gone.

Tips for purchase order PDFs

1. Keep one row per item so partial deliveries are easy to mark.
2. Add a Received column with the date each line arrives.
3. Compare the PO to the supplier invoice before paying.

The Purchase Order Tracker turns rows like these into a working record: what you ordered, from whom, and what is still on the way.
